Fanswag: Get a copy of No More Heroes on us


We're going to be honest here: we just couldn't trust you to do the right thing and get No More Heroes. So, we picked up three copies ourselves to make sure that some of you got your hands on the game. The only crummy part is that we have but 3 copies and not the 50 we wanted to order. We blame our bank account, which is mainly filled with loose buttons and bottlecaps. Our bank account is a shoebox under a loose brick in our cell that Joystiq keeps us locked up in, if you were wondering.

But, we digress. This is about you! And about how you are going to get a free copy of No More Heroes (retail value $29.99)! What do you need to do to enter? Well, for this, we thought about the game's protagonist, Travis Touchdown, and how he's such a punk, rebel badass. So, tell us the most rebellious thing you've ever done! Did you, like our own JC Fletcher, get spotted checking out a Ramones CD once in a local music store? Or, have your rebellious spurts been more tame than that?

Simply leave a comment (you can leave one once per calendar day) between now and the end of the giveaway, which is Thursday, May 8th at 11:59pm ET (winners will be selected via random drawing the following day), and you're entered. The giveaway is only open to legal and current residents of the United States and Canada (excluding Quebec) who regularly check their email (we're serious, folks, if you don't check your email and win, someone else is getting your game so be on top of that). Also, you have to be 18 years or older. This is a mature game, folks!

Best of luck to you all and don't forget to give the official rules a read.

Wii Fanswag: The Nyko peripherals go to ...


We recently received an email from a reader looking for some information. See, we crowned a winner in our latest Fanswag giveaway and confirmed with them through email that they qualified for this peripheral prize pack, yet never announced it on the site. Silly us, right?

So, better late than never:
Congratulations, Sharon! Better luck next time to all of you and thanks for reading Wii Fanboy!

Reminder: Last day for Nyko accessories


Today is it, the end of our latest giveaway. When the clock strikes midnight tonight (Eastern Time), we will stop accepting entries and begin the long and painful process of selecting a winner. So head on over to the original contest post and read up on how you too can enter for a chance at these three Nyko peripherals.

Good luck!

Wii Fanswag: Wireless nunchuk, Perfect Shot and Frontman guitar


Perhaps you caught our review of both the wireless nunchuk adapter and Perfect Shot? Why no Frontman love? Well, we're busy bloggers and we just couldn't get around to it. The giveaway machine needs to keep chugging along, though, so we're unloading the unopened Frontman peripheral (valued at $60) along with the nunchuk adapter (valued at $20) and Perfect Shot (valued at $15), onto one lucky reader!

What do you have to do to get in on this? Just leave a comment telling us why you deserve to win and that's it! Simple, right? We keep telling you we like it simple! Protip: you can enter once each day and must be a current, legal resident of the United States or Canada (excluding Quebec). The giveaway begins as of right now.

When does your chance to enter end? 11:59PM ET on Sunday, April 6th 2008. Get your comments in before then and we'll select our winner come the following day. For a full and very complete list of rules, click here. Good luck to you all!

Fanswag: The Atari giveaway comes to a close

Well, folks, that's all she wrote. Our latest giveaway involving a whole bunch of Atari games has come to its conclusion and with the dust settling, Wii Fanboy now has to select a few winners. Because of that, we won't wait to hear confirmation via email from the winners like we usually do. Instead, we're just going to put up this post here informing all that entered our contest to check their email often. We're going to be sending out emails to the winners and if you're one and you don't get back to us in a timely manner, we'll have to select someone else.

So, thank you to all who entered and a big thanks to Atari for making this possible. Make sure you keep an eye out for our next Fanswag giveaway!

Reminder: Last day to enter our Atari games giveaway


Well folks, it's coming to a close. We've had a great deal of people enter at their chance to get their hands on some Atari games and today is the last day the giveaway is open. If you have yet to hear about what we're doing, then we suggest you hit up the contest post and, in the future, read Wii Fanboy more often. We've been talking about this giveaway all week!

Thank you all for entering and taking time out of your day to read Wii Fanboy! And, a big thank you to Atari for hooking us up with the games! Best of luck to you all!

Reminder: Lots of Atari games up for grabs


Wii Fanboy is sitting on a bunch of games. Our good friends at Atari had some extra product laying around and they knew that when it comes to giving away free stuff, nobody does it better than Wii Fanboy. At least, that's what we told them to get the games.

So if you're not hip to how this giveaway works, every day you can leave a comment on the original contest post, entering you into the contest and giving you a chance to win one of several different prize packs, each containing multiple games. What are you waiting for? Get over there and read up on the contest rules already!

Good luck!

Reminder: Lots of Atari games up for grabs


We're sitting on a pile of Wii games from Atari, in case you haven't been paying attention. Every day, you can enter at your chance for one of three different prize packs available, each containing multiple games.

Good luck!

Wii Fanswag: Win some games from Atari


Atari has hooked us up and, by hooking us up, hooked you up. That's a whole lot of hooking (keep your mind out of the gutter!) right there. They've unloaded, literally, a box full of games onto us. It's not like we can keep them, so we're going to give them away to you!

As usual, you must be 18 years of age or older to enter and a legal resident of the 50 United States or Canada (excluding Quebec). How do you enter, you ask? Well, just tell us what your favorite Atari game of all time is. Pretty simple, eh? We like to keep it simple.

The prizes up for grabs:
  • 2 Grand prize winners: 1 copy of Godzilla Unleashed ($40), 1 copy of DBZ Budokai 2 ($30), 1 copy of DBZ Budokai 3 ($40) and 1 copy of My Horse and Me ($30)
  • 2 Runner-up winners: 1 copy of Godzilla Unleashed ($40), 1 copy of My Horse and Me and 1 copy of DBZ Budokai 3 ($40)
  • 1 consolation winner: 1 copy of Godzilla Unleashed ($40) and 1 copy of My Horse and Me ($30)
You can enter only once per day and should you leave more than one comment in this post during a one-day period, you'll find yourself disqualified. Also, if you leave a comment that isn't on the topic of what we asked, you will be disqualified. And make sure you check your email regularly. If we send you an email saying you won and we don't hear back from you, we have to award the prize to someone else. The contest will end Sunday, March 23rd at 11:59PM ET. We'll select the winners via random drawing the next day.

For a full and very complete list of rules, click here. Best of luck to you all and thanks to Atari for the giveaway goodies!

Wii Fanswag: Win a copy of Dragon Quest Swords


We've been sitting on this copy of Square Enix's Dragon Quest Swords (retails for $50) for a little longer than we would've liked, but we're now ready to gift it to one lucky reader. As with the majority of our giveaways, there are some rules that must be followed.

First of all, you must be 18 years of age or older to enter, as well as a current resident of the United States or Canada (excluding Quebec). Sorry, no getting around these two. Also, in order to enter, you only need leave a comment telling us what your favorite Dragon Quest (or Dragon Warrior) game is. And you may only leave one comment per day, or else you'll be disqualified from the giveaway.

We'll be ending the contest on Sunday, March 16th at 11:59PM Eastern. All comments after that time will be disqualified and we'll announce the winner (chosen via random drawing) on Monday. For a full and very complete list of rules, click here.

Reminder: Spiderwick Chronicles up for grabs


Unlike the kid above, the instruction manual for the copy of The Spiderwick Chronicles we're giving away will be much smaller and way more easier to read. It doesn't even require you to be in bed with a flashlight while doing so!
